Local Area

Coast / Beach – The house is only a short distance from the Gulf of Mexico but direct access is not possible as it is a nature reserve.

The nearest beach with white sand and palm trees is a 15/20 minute drive away.

Golf – There are approximately 16 public golf courses within 20 miles of Homosassa; a full list can be provided upon request before your visit. This list is also available in the house.

Out and About – The area is famous for its wildlife and outdoor activities. Manatees can be viewed from a floating underwater viewing gallery at the Homosassa Springs Wildlife Park and the rivers nearby. Boats can also be hired to swim with the manatees or to take a trip up the Gulf. Cycling, walking and bird watching are also popular local activities.

Distance / Location – Sugarmill Woods is located near the junction of US 19 and US 98. Homosassa is 5 miles to the north and Crystal River is another 5 miles beyond this. To the south, Weekie Watchee is 12 miles and Spring Hill and New Port Ritchie a little further on.

Airports – The nearest airport is Tampa which is a 45 minute drive away up the quiet rural toll road, the Suncoast Parkway, which passes right in front of Sugarmill Woods. Orlando International is one and a half hours drive and Orlando Sandford is 2 hours drive away. We have personally found that the only airline to fly direct into Tampa is British Airways, although many airlines fly into both Orlando International and Orlando Sandford. We have found that BA and MyTravel offer the best value flights.

Car Hire – All major car hire companies can be found at all 3 Orlando airports.

Booking Notes – A 10% deposit secures a reservation but will be non refundable if cancellation is within 8 weeks of due stay. The final balance is due 8 weeks before arrival together with a damage deposit (refundable once property has been checked over after your stay).
